ReaR
Posted on Mon, Jun 28, 2010 at 13:58 by Hubertus A. Haniel
I recently had to revisit ReaR (Relax and Recover) at work as a backup method for Linux systems and I must say this is propably the best way of backing up your linux system and being able to recover it from bare metal. I have managed to recover a linux system with a LVM setup on top of a md raid 1 layout.
Check it out at http://rear.sourceforge.net/
My current and slightly modified packages can be found here.
The main modifications are to make ReaR work on OEL.

Welcome - Notes from a Linux/Unix Engineer

I used to collect notes documents and HOWTO's at http://www.rootunix.org which are now archived at http://www.unixcook.com/old-unix-docs/ as it was difficult to maintain and I got lazy with it. I have come across a cross-platform blog software called Thingamablog which is written in Java so it works on Windows and Unix and I am hoping that it will enable me to publish useful notes at a quicker pace with not a lot of messing around.
We will see how successful that will be....
